Chelsea, our founder · Austin, Texas

It began with her own pans.

Shallot and Bluebell Purple were two of Chelsea’s favorite cookware colors. Bluebell Purple shared a name with her beloved rescue dog, Bluebell. She wanted the pans she loved to feel like one collection. Her idea: flower knobs to bring them together.

A few things to
get a handle on.

The swap, the fit and finding your look.

How do I change my knob?
  1. Let the cookware cool completely.
  2. Remove the original knob following your cookware maker’s instructions. Keep it so you can switch back.
  3. Fit your new knob with the supplied hardware. Silicone spacers sit on both sides of the lid; the folding D-ring beneath the lid lets you tighten the attachment by hand.
Take a closer look at the attachment
Will it fit my pot?

Start with a lid that has a removable center knob. Fit depends on your specific lid and its hardware, so we confirm your pot’s model and fit before fulfilling your preorder. The try-on tool shows the look. It does not confirm fit.

Read the fit guide
Should every pot have the same knob?

Only if that’s your thing. Repeat one flower for a matched set, or choose different flowers in one finish to tie them together. If you’re mixing pot colors, a shared knob or finish gives them something in common.
